    I don't know much about him, but my impression is that people inside the 251 are obsessed with Byrne and people outside of it are very meh. Is that accurate? Can he win statewide? I know it depends on a lot but this is a man that lost to Robert Bentley.

    Came itt to see any reviews. I normally go ribs, pork, Mac, rice with the spicy vinegar sauce, and white bread.

    Probably would be my choice for last meal if it ever came to that.

    Went to El Zun Zun for the first time yesterday for lunch. Pretty disappointing.

    Wife had a margarita, I had a beer, we split cheese dip and a quesadilla and left with a $40 tab. Food was just ok service was slow.

    They’ve TexMex’d the menu up considerably, based off early reviews. It seems people didn’t get the concept and wanted food they’re used to seeing at “Mexican” restaurants.

    Yeah it was way more Mexican that I thought it was going to be.

    I thought the price point was bad. If I wanted to overpay for average Mexican food I would have gone to La Paz.

    The most difficult thing for any republican will be the primary. All of them are tripping over themselves to announce full support of trump, so the primary will probably come down to which one is most supportive of him. Byrne appears to disagree with trump on climate change, so that could doom him in the primary.

    We went last night and thought it was really good. Also got the 3 meat combo - ribs, pork, and chicken. Also agree about the ribs being the highlight.

    CF3234 There’s a Full Moon BBQ right by the Pelham Civic Center. It’s a pretty good local chain. If you head north about a mile on 31, in the Publix shopping center, is Tony’s Hotdogs. Good hotdog/hamburger place with a damn good breakfast. It’s small, so wouldn’t be a good option if you have a hockey team with you. It’s just past Milos, which is fast food burger place mentioned above. Are you looking for a dinner spot for a large group? Probably head north 7mi into Hoover and go to the Riverchase Galleria/Patton Creek shopping center area where there’s plenty of choices, but you probably should go to Twin Peaks.
